At the heart of this Day-Date is a genuine meteorite dial, a material formed over billions of years and unique to every watch it graces. Diamond hour markers add further distinction, catching light against the naturally patterned surface. The round 36mm case is crafted in yellow gold and topped with a fluted bezel, while a sapphire crystal protects the view from above.
Rolex engineering underpins the piece with a selfwinding movement, a screw-locked crown, and water resistance to 100 metres. The crown-down details extend to a folding clasp securing the yellow gold Oyster bracelet, keeping the overall aesthetic cohesive from every angle.
Reference 118238 sits within the Day-Date lineage — long associated with yellow gold and exceptional dial choices — and this meteorite configuration represents one of the more extraordinary expressions available within that collection.
